Event Overview
The Navy's Bay Bridge Run/Walk is a point-to-point running and walking event in San Diego. It is hosted by the Navy Region Southwest Morale, Welfare and Recreation (MWR) Program. The event raises funds to support Quality of Life Programs for Navy personnel.
Course and Distances
The event offers two on-site distances:
- A 4 mile point-to-point course.
- A 10K point-to-point course.
Both courses start at One Park Blvd in San Diego, between the Hilton Bayfront and Convention Center. They go through downtown San Diego, over the Coronado Bridge, and finish at Tidelands Park in Coronado. The 10K route continues on a flat section through Coronado Island after the bridge. A virtual entry option is also available, where participants can complete the distance from any location and receive their race swag by mail.
Event Details
Registration includes a commemorative t-shirt and a finisher medal. The 39th edition finisher medal is described as a special edition that connects with the following year's 40th-anniversary medal.
Race numbers are mailed to participants who register by a specified deadline (May 8th). Packet pickup is available on the Saturday before the event at RoadRunner Sports in San Diego, and also on race morning at the start line area.
Participants must select a start corral during registration, with options ranging from "FAST RUN" to "STROLL & ROLL" based on estimated finish pace. The same corrals are used for both distances. Free transportation back to the start line from the finish is provided via shuttle bus or ferry.
A VIP Finish Line Experience upgrade is available for an additional fee, offering access to a VIP area with seating and a continental breakfast. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
